Stanwix Tandoori in Carlisle

Very very good,couldn't fault it . Recommend the lamb biryani

Got my order wrong, Isn't even worth time/fuel driving back to get it changed. Wasn't that good either considering they are one of the most expensive in carlisle. At least of you were dining in you could get what they sent out swapped.

Came here twice now for a takeaway while working up here and it's really top quality curry. Everything I've ordered was spot on. Definitely returning in future

Another delicious meal. Great service, yet, agai . Lovely friendly staff. Most certainly can recommend. Xx

Food was excellent, but very pricey, staff friendly enough

Nice curries and prompt service I go there monthly

Best Tandoori in Cumberland? I think so.

Had such a great meal here! Fantastic food and at atmosphere.

Visited as part of a group of 10. Arrived at 6.30pm & the restaurant was already full, such is the popularity of this place, so I would recommend booking! The food was as good as ever, the service was great - just what we were looking for.

Went for dinner with friends. The food was fresh and really tasty. No pressure to be hurried off which was really nice. Takeaway not as good as dinner in, significant differences between the two unfortunately.

I went to the Stanwix Tandoori restaurant through a networking event that was held there, the service and atmosphere was perfect and the food was amazing. Highly recommended 5 stars

I ordered garlic Naan, butter chicken, and peanut rice take-a-away. The staff were curt, but helpful. However, the food was dreadful. The peanut rice was sweet and missing peanuts, and the butter chicken was sugary and not creamy. Maybe I'm missing something as an American tourist, but I'm used to these dishes being savory, not sugary sweet.

Great food and service. 5 of us enjoyed a variety of dishes, all of us commented on the quality of the food.

Management are super friendly and helpful and the staff are accommodation to dietary questions and requirements. Although the food wasn’t what I was expecting the manager was happy to help me resolve this. I would be willing to try another dish here but would 100% ask further questions about the dishes before ordering.

The food was ok but not very big portions, and a bit expensive

Had classic curry, tasteless and full of liquid. King prawn Korma, tasted like it should but the prawns tasted like they had been microwaved and were rubbery and tasted of nothing. Chicken Chaat was just about ok but again lacked flavour. Over all very poor quality food. Won’t be going again.

Went by myself; really good friendly service; food was great, loads of veggie options and the food was so tasty! Highly recommend.

First time since the refurb and not disappointed. The place is stylish, modern and a fantastic atmosphere. The staff were all brilliant with excellent customer service. The food was better than amazing, loved every mouthful and are already planning our next visit. Definitely the best in town

Great food , very tasty , the only issue I found was the seating,, no room to move and the sitting position wasn't nice .

The Seekh kebab was awesome and I love Their coconut rice. The Chicken Pakora was So good it tasted fresh. The chutneys were Good. Everything here was the best around. I would want gordon ramsay and guy fieri to come one say. Even the Gajar ka Halfwa is golden to.

This restaurant is fantastic, with an interesting decor and a pleasant atmosphere. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious, aromatic, and beautifully presented. I highly recommend it.

One of the best meals we have had. Outstanding.

Brilliant food, very tasty and staff are always very pleasant.

We tried various Indian dishes, but unfortunately, the flavor and quality were disappointing. The paneer tikka had a sour taste and was oddly colored. Additionally, the virgin mojito was less enjoyable than simple nimbu pani. Each additional item, such as a pickle tray, came with a charge, in this case £2.50. It's worth noting that many of these extras are typically offered for free at restaurants in India.

The food was nice. I appreciate it was busy but the waiter threw the dinner plates onto the table so much so they rattled as they landed. He also threw the food dishes down onto the table. No care was taken when serving the food and he gave the impression he had no interest in his job whatsoever.

The food was amazing and the waiters were so friendly will definently come back

Excellent food, really terrific curries. The Achar and the Dhansak were highlights. I would go again in a heartbeat.

A great restaurant. The quality of food and service is second to none. I had a vindaloo as a challenge. Boy! It was hot, but tasty. The owner saw my red face and sweat beads and produced a yogurt for cooling purposes. Great evening.

Excellent food and reasonably priced. Service was good with plenty of staff.

Arrived late and was welcomed. Very attentive staff and good quality food.

Always good quality food when we have ordered for takeaway.

Partner and I visited this place about 5years ago when we were on holiday and the food was amazing but afraid this visit was not amazing very disappointing food. partner had tandoori mix grill which was tasteless and dry myself I had fried lamb also bland and tasteless staff were pleasant the look of the place is beautiful

Amazing food, fantastic service and friendly staff.

Amazing food, service and quality - best restaurant within a 100 mile radius

Best Indian I have had there with friends and we all loved the food.

Great service, freshly prepared delicious food, very friendly and efficient staff.

Best Curry Restaurant in the area.

Delicious food and great service. Fab to have Stanwix Tandoori back on our doorstep.

Amazing atmosphere, food was amazing. I'm definitely going back.

How have I not been here before? My only criticism would be that the naan bread was cut up, prefer it when its whole but the best Indian I have had in Carlisle, food was really good, fresh, tasty and well presented. Staff were professional and attentive. Would definitely recommend, will have to see how the take away service is.

Beautiful meal with my husband . Food was amazing. Piping hot and very tasty. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend 👌

Brilliant, great food, large portions and great service

Went Monday 23 Oct @ 5.30. No booking. They squeezed us in (5 on 4 seat table). Place was packed before we left around 7.15. Food good quality. Onion bhajis and naan breads excellent. Service quick. Reasonably priced. Friendly. Would recommend. Parked in small car park opposite.

Lovely decor. The food was ok. Service was ok.

Nice food as always. Good choice of dishes. Staff very attentive and friendly.

amazing atmosphere and drinks and food are amazing. great place place for a nice quiet meal.

I tried the new delivery service tonight as I am unwell and it did not disappoint, the food was amazing as per usual, got through to place order no problem, payment was easy, would highly recommend,

Fantastic...we went on a busy Saturday and the party was for 10 people. Amazing staff, fantastic food. Love this place.

We visited here on a Monday evening. Excellent bajhis to start and then a mix of 5 different dishes, all were excellent, perfect portion sizes, with plenty of meat and vegetables. Excellent friendly service, and fantastic value. Highly recommended.

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere as you expect. I would recommend this place to anyone who would like to have good time and good food with lovely service. Kiran and Priya .

Had a meal with family, everything about this restaurant was excellent

One of a very few places locally that i will go back.

Went here for dinner last night with 4 friends, all of us had excellent meals. Everyone agreed that the Lamb Karahi was the favourite. We tried to book online and couldn’t get a table but rang when they’d opened and got in OK

Lovely food , great service, reasonably priced. I will recommend this place. Best place to have Indian food in Carlisle . We visit this place very regularly and never been disappointed 😊. Kiran and Priya.

Great venue. Amazing food. Wonderful staff. Make sure you visit

Probably the best in the city by a country mile..

One of the best curry houses I’ve been to. Iv been up and down the country working on site and this place has topped them all. The venue is amazing, staff so friendly and the food was faultless

Much improved since its renovation and serves some of the best curry in the city. Would love to see it open for Dishoom etc. style breakfast\brunch on a weekend and bring in a few more authentic indian street food dishes. Overall though consistent and tasty!

We just turn up. Always excellent food and service..

Extensive menu so everyone will find something they like. Very attentive staff but allowed us time to chat, browse the menu. Nothing was rushed so you can enjoy the whole experience and atmosphere. The food was excellent and the prices are fair for a restaurant of this quality. I would recommend everyone to go here if they want an exceptional meal in a very relaxed and pleasant environment.

Lovely deco really nice atmosphere, it was my grandsons birthday and the staff and other guests in restaurant sang happy birthday thank you lovley meal also.

Organised a surprise 70th and they were very helpful and accommodating. Food was excellent and service excellent too. Will see you again soon!

Best Indian I've ever had, staff was awesome and prices very reasonable

Indian ingredients but food was something else! Service was lethargic.

Fantastic meal. So nice in here since the refurbishment. Also the service off our waiter Jabed was second to none

Probably the best curry I've had, I work all over the UK too, will be re visiting when I'm back in the area

Great meal , service was amazing will defiantly be back

Fantastic meal and service again !

superb food & service . recommend it

Great to go back, lovely lovely food and redecoration looks fab. Will be back soon

as a vegan i’m often limited for options when eating out, however this was totally not the case at stanwix tandoori! there was so much to choose from and all of our food was absolutely delicious! will definitely be returning and would highly recommend!

Very good dining experience, the staff were also very attentive. Special mention to the 2 young lads, although the least experienced in years, they were just as efficient as the rest!

Delicious food & great friendly atmosphere. Good value for money too.

Rang for a takeaway told to come for 6pm arrived on time they asked me to pay soon as I arrived. waited till 6.30 then just walked out in the end with no food . Would never go back.

Booked this restaurant for valentines meal. We were welcomed with a warm, friendly smile and a good evening. We were shown to our table and given menus. Drinks were ordered quickly. The food service was fantastic, and the meal itself was out of this world very tasty. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Great atmosphere and very relaxing. Great little touch at the end. When we paid the bill, we were given little chocolates and a bag of sweets. I would highly recommend this restaurant to friends and family. Thank you for a great evening.

We managed to get a table on a very busy Wednesday evening, the service was excellent, very attentive. The food was lovely, we had the butter chicken, chicken tikka masala and the tandoori cocktail which was quite a substantial dish. My only small niggle was the naan breads which were more like round flat breads than the traditional teardrop shaped blistered breads, they were also a little on the chewy side unlike traditional naans.

Fantastic warm welcome, beautiful meal, ticked every box ❤️

I can honestly say in nearly 20 years of coming here I have never been disappointed. Great food and great staff.enough said.

Love the new look. Food was always very good in here, but is even better since reopening. 😋 l would highly recommend a visit.

Ordered 3 starters that never arrived after waiting over an hour then got asked cash or bank transfer when coming to pay the bill ours drinks were £7.50each wont be rushing back

Absolutely fantastic meal at stanwix tandoori tonight , could not fault it in any way .

Couldn't tell you what the food was like and I don't care, the staff are rude and turned us away because we were in our work clothes. We are only stopping in Carlisle for dinner then carrying on work, well I have news for you Stanwix Tandoori. You're building is dated and you can't afford to be do stuck up !

Fantastic service, the staff are always welcoming and the food is always delicious & mouth watering

Lovely food - as always. Perfect staff.

Very decent Indian fare! Great quality friendly staff good prices. A credit to Carlisle!

Friendly place and the food is exceptional

Haven't been in while took my family all got starters and a main meal, all were beautiful the chicken tikka was so juicy and the king prawns were amazing 👏 will definitely return soon .

Absolutely fantastic as always.. . Met friends there tonight . We all had a brilliant time! Fantastic food 🍲 and these guys worked their socks off to provide brilliant food and service. Felt really safe too. Well done the Stanwix crew!!

Excellent food and good service, easy to book

Lovely food as always. Very well managed. Straight to your table when entering. Pleasant staff. Always accommodating, a pleasure to visit in these hard times.

Fabulous meal. Great service will be back. Food was too good to take photos. Maybe next time

Really disappointed with takeaway but raised with my and rectified

Awesome food. Covid secure take away service

Went here last night, very nice food and very quick service. It was knocking on a bit towards closing time. Would certainly go back. Its a bit dated in the decor department but clean and covid compliant.

India is a country of beautiful colour and vibrancy, it's such a shame that this eatery was so drab and in much need of updating. The food was pretty awful with both starter and mains just warm and unappetising. It's a few years since l was last there but it will be a long time before l come back.

Beautiful, not from the area but it's worth the trip back, excellent service, had mixed veg starter so tasty then Lamb Jalfrezi, wow! Sooo good

Friendly professional service in a popular restaurant. The meal was enjoyable and good value. Downside in portion size being too large for me, but that is an individual opinion.

Decor was dull and dated, food was okay

Visited on a Saturday evening while staying for the weekend. The food was excellent and with lots of choice. Service was amazing, staff very friendly and polite and the atmosphere was lovely, perfect for social distancing with individual booths.

Was lucky enough to book a last minute table despite the night been extremely busy. Upon arrival we were instantly greeted with a smile by Muhib who showed us to our table. Drinks order was taken and ample time was given to us to look at the food menu. All staff maintained social distancing when taking orders and serving food and we're respectful of all customers. All food arrived in good time and of the highest quality as usual. Staff maintained COVID procedures and ensured all staff and customers were safe. Will definitely be back again.
